Stony Brook University researcher Sima Mofakham develops SeeMe, an AI tool that detects subtle facial movements to spot consciousness in brain-injured patients up to four days earlier than doctors. Non-invasive and low-cost, it could be scaled for widespread hospital use and paired with therapies to improve recovery. The program provides an extra layer of insight to guide treatment and support families without replacing clinical judgment.
Collaboration with the University at Buffalo will Democratize Access to Artificial Intelligence and Research Computing
The U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded a $13.77 million grant to Stony Brook University’s Institute for Advanced Computational Science (IACS), in collaboration with the University at Buffalo. The award, “Sustainable Cyber-infrastructure for Expanding Participation,” will deliver cutting-edge computing and data resources to power advanced research nationwide.
SBU researchers train robots to detect hidden hazards around corners using single-photon LiDAR. Their project is the first to implement this navigation technology using commercially available, lightweight sensors.
